The man accused of writing an “imposter” ransom note to the Nancy Guthrie family was released from federal custody on Thursday. Derrick Callella appeared in federal court on one count of intent to transmit a ransom demand and one count of utilizing a telecommunications device to anonymously abuse, threaten or harass a person. 

TMZ just received a third email from the man who claims he knows the identity of Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper ... and he has upped his price. The email says he's contacting TMZ because he doesn't trust law enforcement. He's essentially using TMZ as an intermediary, telling authorities -- you don't trust me, and I don't trust you.
